I have a 3rd party piece of javascript that is remotely hosted and featured in my site (they are search results). I need to be able to read the output that a user gets in real time. I want to know what ads they saw.

Is this at all possible? Happy to pay for a solution :-)

You could probably create a script that would examine the HTML generated by the remotely-hosted JavaScript. If the ads are all text, you may be able to read it. If it's an image ad, you're out of luck. The 'src' URL for image ads is generally encoded in a way that only the ad's server can decipher it and subsequent fetches of those URLs often result in a different ad being served each time.
